The 29-year-old TNT champion will challenge Darby Allin on Wednesday's Dynamite after Allin retained the AEW world title against Brody King last week.
Knight said the match is a full-circle moment because both wrestlers trained at Seattle's Buddy Wayne Academy, where Allin once told him not to waste time.
Knight, who signed with AEW last March after stints in New Japan and TNA, said MJF should go to the back of the line after consecutive losses.
